I’m currently reading Lamentations by Ken Scholes and have come across a quote that gave me pause.

Neb laughed, “I only said I don’t know what I want to be when I grow up.”
Brother Hebda laughed, too. “Oh. That’s easy, then.”
“Really?”
His father nodded and leaned in. “Watch for the ones who leave your mouth hanging open. Study them, find out what they love and what they fear. Dig the treasure out of their soul and hold it to the light.” He leaned in even closer now, so that Neb could smell the wine on his breath. “Then be like them.”

Beautiful. I hope I live my life in this manner and never settle for less than the person I want to be.
